  2. “Kamala on the Hot Seat?”

    Clandestine, Sep 06, 2024

    “The Kamala hype-train has run out of steam. The illusion of popularity has fizzled out, and now her campaign is limping into a debate with Trump in 4 days, with just 1 very unimpressive interview under her belt.

    I like our position. If Kamala does not have a good performance, her campaign might not be salvageable. The Dems would then have to explore other options, whether that be refusing to certify the election, some unforeseen level of fraud, WW3, a new “pandemic”, black swan event, etc.

    There is also the potential that the DNC just swap her out like they did Biden. Legally, the DNC have the authority to replace their candidate post-convention if Kamala were to “step down”, but strategically, I don’t see how the Dems could abandon Kamala after going all-in on her, and so little time left on the clock. It would be a bad look to circumvent democracy AGAIN by selecting a 3rd candidate, but at this point, nothing would surprise me, and their brainwashed sheep will do whatever they are told.

    Image is Nate Silver election winner probability model, reflective of Kamala’s drop in polls, specifically in swing states.”

  3. Huh….who knew??? He was spurred to take on the task in an attempt to save his dying sister-in-law. He wasn’t able to do that but continued on in her honor.

    EXCERPT: “Charles Lindbergh was the designer of the perfusion pump—a handblown, 18-inch-high, clear Pyrex glass configuration that was used to keep organs functioning outside of the body. He made it in 1935 after a culmination of a quiet collaboration with the Nobel Prize winning scientist Alexis Carrel.

    The device supplied or “perfused” the organ with a steady supply of oxygenated blood (or a synthetic substitute). Carrel had perfected the fluid, but what he didn’t have was a way to properly apply this to the organ. Lindbergh put his mechanical mastery to work designing the three-chambered device to hold an organ in place and allow it to be perfused with Carrel’s “artificial blood.”

      1. He started out trying to come up with something that would allow doctors to do open-heart surgery but also applied it to other organs.

  5. new ethics complaint filed by Stefanik

    lise Stefanik
    @EliseStefanik
    🚨🚨🚨 Today I filed a new judicial ethics complaint with the New York State Commission because new evidence on Kamala Harris’ most recent FEC filing shows she hired and paid Acting Justice Juan Merchan’s adult daughter’s company. This is a clear violation of the New York State Judicial Code of Conduct which dictates that a judge must recuse from a case where a relative up to and including the sixth degree has a financial interest in the outcome of the case.

    Read my full complaint below:

    September 6, 2024
    New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct 61 Broadway, Suite 1200 New York, New York 10006
    Members of the Commission:

    I am writing to you concerning potential ethical issues with respect to Acting Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan. On May 21, 2024, I filed a complaint against Justice Merchan concerning his presiding over the pending criminal case of former President Donald J. Trump. The New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct (the Commission) rejected the complaint on July 3, 2024. As of today, President Trump is scheduled for sentencing on September 18, 2024, at which he faces up to 136 years’ imprisonment. New information has come to light that merits a fresh look into Justice Merchan’s conflict. Neither the Appellate Division nor the Advisory Committee on Judicial Ethics could have known about this material when they issued opinions as to Justice Merchan’s continuing to preside over President Trump’s case.

    On July 21, 2024, President Joe Biden announced that he would not seek a second term. Within a few days, Vice President Kamala Harris was anointed to become the Democrat Party’s nominee for the presidency. During his campaign, President Biden used one company, Amazon Web Services (AWS), for the campaign’s web hosting services.1 President Biden’s campaign paid AWS throughout 2023 through the suspension of his campaign in July 2024. On August 20, 2024, Vice President Harris’s campaign submitted its first Federal Election Commission (FEC) report that documented expenses and donations through July 31, 2024. In the report, specifically on Form 3P, line 232, a July 30, 2024, disbursement appears in the amount of $468.00 from Vice President Harris’s campaign to Authentic Campaigns Inc. (Authentic) for web hosting services. This indicates that one of the very first things that Harris did upon taking over the Biden campaign infrastructure is to hire this firm, Authentic.

    Authentic is a digital consulting and marketing firm that services Democrat candidates. Loren Merchan, Justice Merchan’s daughter, is its president. Vice President Harris changed web hosting companies from AWS to Authentic immediately after becoming the presumptive Democrat presidential nominee. As the FEC report’s filing did not occur until August 20, nearly a month after the Harris campaign and Authentic had begun doing business, no one in the public, including the Commission, could have known of the relationship. This is merely the beginning of a new contract with a new campaign, regardless of the amount reimbursed. Sure, there’s an immediate benefit, but this is a play at a potential larger benefit for Authentic and Merchan down the road.

    The Code of Conduct, specifically § 100.3(E)(1)(d)(iii), dictates that a judge must recuse from a case where a relative up to and including the sixth degree has a financial interest in the outcome of the case. Ms. Merchan is related to Justice Merchan in the first degree. Authentic has a newly active financial relationship with Vice President Harris’s campaign. President Trump’s sentencing, an event which will garner worldwide media coverage, is imminent. This event, a month and a half prior to the November 5 election, could have a profound impact on that election; indeed, some states will have commenced mail voting by that date. Given this revelation of a brand-new conflict of interest for Judge Merchan, I respectfully request that the Commission engage in a fresh inquiry concerning Justice Merchan’s conflict and take any appropriate action resulting from it.

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.
    Sincerely,

    Elise Stefanik

  6. “Georgia School Mass Murderer Is Homosexual and Frustrated Over Trans Acceptance So Expect the Story to Disappear — When the narrative breaks, the reporters look elsewhere.”

    JD Rucker, Sep 06, 2024

    “The narrative that it’s always right-wing straight white dudes shooting up schools took another hit today when it was revealed Georgia school shooter Colt Gray is “gay” and expressed frustration over the acceptance of transgenders.

    The story will be pushed down on corporate media’s priority list immediately.

    According to Collin Rugg:

    JUST IN: Georgia school sh**ter Colt Gray was “bullied for being gay” and “expressed frustration with the acceptance of transgender people.”

    According to CNN, Gray’s Discord account discussed his frustration with the “acceptance of trans people.”

    “The account referenced Adam Lanza, the Sandy Hook Elementary School sh**ter, and in separate posts shared a desire to target an elementary school and expressed frustration with the acceptance of transgender people,” CNN reported

    Colin Gray, Colt’s father, reportedly told the Jackson County Sheriff’s office last year that his son was bullied at school for being gay.

    “It was very difficult for him to go to school and not get picked on,” he said.

    “It went from one thing to another… I was trying to get him on the golf team… [they were like] ‘Oh, look, Colt’s gay. He’s dating that guy. Just ridiculed him day after day after day.’”

    During the same interview, Colin Gray said his son “gets flustered and under pressure” and “doesn’t really think straight.”

    “He knows the seriousness of weapons and what they can do, and how to use them and not use them.”

    They’ll report it as they are now, then it will be memory holed.”

    1. The Winder, GA school shooter believed he was gay and/or trans and was mocked about it at school. He felt bullied and decided to kill people in response.

      Gay and Trans have higher statistics engaging in violence, molestation, murder and suicide.

      Being bullied isn’t an excuse to kill others. The guy had multiple unhealthy abnormal conditioned ideations. 

      I do not subscribe to the gay/straight, gender, identity, orientation garbage – that’s all propaganda to defend their chosen lifestyles.

      These people are suffering from lifelong conditioning and shaping of their feelings, thoughts, perceptions – as well as pressures by parents, peers, media, and have been habituated into these false, mistaken, assumed, stolen identities and coerced and forced identities in the case of rape and molestation, parental dysfunction and anyone pushing little kids to change genders.

  13. “Pfizer Deploys Mobile ‘School of Science’ to Teach Kids the ABCs of Pandemics and Vaccines

    Students enter the Pfizer trailer for an “escape-room-like” experience, working with Pfizer employees on a pandemic tabletop exercise ending in how to make a vaccine to distribute globally. “It just feels so wrong,” one critic — a teacher — told The Defender.”

    by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D., September 6, 2024

    girl writing "ABC" on chalkboard and vaccine bottle with pfizer logo

    EXCERPT: “Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer is crossing the country with a mobile science “escape room” — complete with a robotic dog — to provide students in rural communities with a “science-based learning experience.” In the process, students are “exposed to a multi-national company” and they get to meet Pfizer employees.

    In its promotional video for the “School of Science Mobile Experience,” students in rural Sanford, North Carolina, are greeted by a Pfizer robot dog, which makes several appearances during their field trip.

    Students enter the Pfizer mobile trailer for a “fantastic, interactive, escape-room-like experience,” where they work with Pfizer employees to solve a mystery about a pandemic outbreak that starts with people showing up in doctor’s offices with scaly, lizard-like skin.

    As they move through the pandemic tabletop exercise, proceeding through different rooms in the trailer, the children learn different lessons. They learn about antigens in one room, about vaccine manufacturing in another, and more….”
